@akromos@mastodon.social @tinker@infosec.exchange hosting your own vpn defeats the purpose, as it is not anonymizing your traffic. Whichever cloud host you use for your VPN (or your ISP if hosting from home) still get all your traffic. And because they’re not even pretending to be pro-privacy, you guarantee logs are created.

@akromos@mastodon.social @tinker@infosec.exchange I haven’t yet figured out what my next step is. Currently using mullvad because it integrates with Tailscale, so I can be using a VPN but still access all my self hosted services (mostly Immich and Synology Drive). And it’s only been like 2 days since reporting came out about Mullvad’s founder donating to right wing extremists (which is the true reason people are being anti-mullvad right now. They do have a good pro-privacy track record).

For those of you that moved from somewhere else to #Europe, how long did it take for the European power outlet to appear in your dream ?

For me, it was last night. Just a little over 1.5yrs. It was also the first time I’ve dreamt in French (I assume the two things were connected).

The dream : (next toot)

My Canyon Grizl 7 was stolen Sept. 2025.
Starting Feb. 2025, pain from a herniated disc started flaring up/down, since Oct. 2025 it’s been mostly up.

This week I had surgery, and while I have pain it is not from a herniated disc but just the regular post-surgery recovery.

So, since my Canyon being stolen I’ve only ridden my commuter bike (Strava says 400km this year).

I’m going to re-buy a Canyon. Should I buy it now or wait till I’m actually ready to start riding again ?

Être pouvoir de parler une deuxième langue, ça c’est comme un superpower. Évidemment mon français n’est pas parfait. Mais je viens de rencontrer quelqu’un français à Amsterdam, et c’était évident qu’il aimait être capable de me parler en français (il est encore en train d’apprendre le néerlandais, et son anglais n’est pas le meilleur).

@geonz@mathstodon.xyz @FluentInFinance@mastodon.social admittedly I’m not familiar with that city, but it has the same car ownership rates as the US as a whole, with only 5.4% of households having no car. That’s compared to 19.1% in Philly. Philly is also well connected to via Amtrak to other cities. Which greatly increases how enjoyable it is to live there without a car.

@FluentInFinance@mastodon.social it’s absurd that most US cities are designed to make cars a necessity. Honestly, one of the huge pluses for #philly, of the US cities where you can live car free without giving up a social life, it is easily the most affordable.

Most of the time when walking around a city, I have headphones in and am listening to music. But the distinct lack of car sounds in #amsterdam makes it pleasant to walk around without headphones and it’s really nice.

@Stoori @Mimesatwork I point it out specifically because toilets are often not free, but .50€ is a negligible amount and if charging a minuscule amount is what enables plentifully available toilets the that is ok.

On most metrics, the EU has the US beat when it comes to train travel EXCEPT when it comes to comfort. The worst seats on Amtrak are better than the best seats on any train I’ve taken in the EU (Eurostar, Thalys, and various SNCF trains).

This post brought to you by a Eurostar seat that’s uncomfortable AF

Hey @overcastfm@mastodon.social , I absolutely love the new transcription feature. It unlocks French podcasts in more categories (I’m an American living in France, currently B2 in French).

Until now I’ve mainly listened to French news podcasts, but the ability to see the words at the same time (when I need them) lets me try to listen to pop culture ones too.

If they had picked me instead of John Ternus, there would be three iPhone sizes: regular, mini, and max. And the iPhone 12/13 mini would be the size of the regular iPhone, with an even smaller one as the mini. Gimme a 4.5” diagonal edge-to-edge display and I’d be living life.

Today, with Trump, we’re the closest to Scenario 3: A grave injustice is occurring: The Trump government is effectuating an immoral war in Iran, funding state sponsored terrorism, and mass-deporting largely innocent civilians in America, among other things. However, there are laws against his government’s abuse of power. The plausibility of their enforcement depends on Democrats taking bake the House, Senate, and then the Presidency. And then also prosecuting his crimes…

And because the problem is the Trump government, not simply Trump himself, assassinating just Trump would not stop the ongoing injustices. And then practically, his crimes would never be prosecuted (so you’re actually denying justice its course).

Not sure who else needs this, but since #Anthropic changes the download URL for each #Claude update, and that URL is no longer public once a new version is out (but it still works for downloading that version), I added a cron job on my NAS to keep a record of all Claude .pkg download URLs, and it checks for a new version every 30min (they be releasing hella updates).

You can find it on #GitHub here : http://github.com/zed1291/ClaudeVersions

@sammy your preferred model of a “shitable city” is that they be free. But it is possible for a city to have adequate public toilets and for those toilets to be paid. That is the only point I am making. I too prefer that public toilets be no charge, but the framing that the must be free otherwise it doesn’t count as a city with an adequate amount of public toilets is incorrect.

@overcastfm@mastodon.social not sure how to handle this, but I used the transcript to skip a dynamically inserted ad and now the highlighted text doesn’t match what is being said.

The text at the bottom of this screenshot is what’s being spoken, but the app thinks the text at the top of the screenshot is what’s being spoken.

C’est stupide que Slack donne des notifications même pour les personnes qui tu as bloqué.

Il y a des personnes dans le MacAdmins Slack (le workspace dans mon screenshot) qui je trouve hyper innervant. Si c’était le workspace pour mon travail je pourrais juste parler avec le RH, mais quand c’est un workspace étant utilisé comme réseau social, il faut vraiment avoir un vrai bouton pour bloquer.

@canleaf@mastodon.social @Ruth_Mottram@fediscience.org none of the continental states would be better off as independent. Samoans overwhelmingly prefer their current status as an overseas territory. PR is the only good candidate for independence, and if they want it then I think it should be granted. The true 51st state should be D.C., which is already an integral part of the US but without the rights of statehood.

It’s incredibly annoying when extremists get mad at someone or some organization when they do the right thing because they didn’t do it earlier.

There is a time and place for pushback, but if you want even more people to start making the morally right decision, depraving those, who just now changed, of the positive feedback loop right after they make one good decision is NOT the way to convince them or others to follow suit to continue or to start making decisions that agree with you.

We don’t need another Ulysses S. Grant “let us have peace” moment or a Gerald Ford pardon moment. We need full on prosecutions of every crime this government is committing, including challenging all of the past and forthcoming illegal pardons. But here’s the main reason why a Trump assassination isn’t moral: the injustice is being committed by the Trump government, not him personally.
